How to Run the Forecast with Mass Processing 

You can use SOP’s mass processing function to run the forecast. In this process:

  1. You create a forecast profile.
  2. You create a planning activity and include in it this action (the forecast profile).
  3. You create a mass processing job for this activity.
  4. You schedule this mass processing job.

The results of the forecast will be different if the forecast is run at a high level and the results then disaggregated to the detailed level than if you carry out the forecast at the detailed level.
